Customer Ratings & Reviews

First UPS, but seems to work great! The app that goes along with it (PowerChute) can keep track of power issues that occur within a week to upto 24 weeks -- which is nice to see if only to see if the UPS is doing its job when you're not around. You can also customize when, exactly, you want your PC to turn off in the event of it going on the battery, which can either be based on how long its been on the UPS or approximately how much time is left on the UPS, Even shows how much Watts of power is being delivered, which I imagine will be useful whenever I go and buy a new GPU (which are more power-hungry then the older ones, and you'd thus need to make sure the PC power supply is large enough).

Outstanding as usual... longtime user and specifier of AP Power Products. yet; I am stressed over immediate supply of mere battery replacements in emergencies in my area. While available on line albeit E-bay or Amazon, when an emergency strikes, availability of mere batteries is AWOL! - POF (Point in fact); I have 2 units in need of replacement batteries which require at least a week to fulfill, thus requiring a whole unit replacement vs a mere battery swap-out. The APC units are awesome except for the the pathetic Power-Shut Software that historically falls short of mark in advising battery failures. Otherwise; APC are must have components in critical power installations for back-up and regulated power and surge protection.

I really like all the information displayed on this unit. I'm running a desktop computer, two monitors, and a cable modem/router and it shows I'm consuming 115 watts and can run on battery for 53 minutes.

This thing is heavy and bigger than I expected but I bought it online so I didn't know any better haha. I love it and I know if I have a power outage it will protect my pc

Purchased as a replacement, so far so good, and we lost power for a day & a half

This universal power supply works effectively to protect against power surges, electrical disruptions, and power loss. It was easy to install.

I use this to protect my internet cable modem because everytime the power flickers or goes out, it takes several minutes for my internet to kick back on. Ever since I’ve purchased this unit from Best Buy, I’ve had no internet interruption when the power flickers off. This is for sure doing its job.

Works great nice slick look to it worth the money to save your computer components

Used it for my unraid server And network devices. Since i integrated it on my system i have zero disconnection on the internet and acess to my server. It run 20min plus on battery with the server on And 90min plus without server. It automatically shutdown my server if its run very low on battery. It also power my poe camera even theres a power outages my home still protected.

Works as expected. Easy setup. Plenty of outlets. Quiet.

This is a great product. I use it to back up my entertainment system, modem, and routers when the power goes out, it keeps those things running for a decent amount of time, but gives you enough time to get everything shut down properly if the power will be out for a length of time also with brownouts that we have this works well on protecting the equipment from those types of power fluctuations as well

Got a bunch of these to plug the modem, router, desktops, and TVs into the battery backup side, and they come in handy during power outages to charge cell phones and use small lamps with low watt LED bulbs when the power is out.

Works great. We had one that quit on us after a storm. Turns out it was undersized. This one handles the computer, monitor, printer and the accessories.

Easy to set up. Easy to use. Works better than the one I had before because it displays remaining battery life. Lost power twice since I got it and everything stayed safe and running until the power came back on.

Have this bad boy protecting about $3000 worth of hardware, so the peace of mind is worth the price alone. This was my first UPS, and I bought it on the recommendation of a couple of YouTube tech review channels (specifically Tech Deals). I am really glad I went with APC. Incredibly easy setup and their software lets you monitor PC power usage, do battery self-tests, calculate monthly power costs, and tweak settings for when and how long it kicks in for, ALL from the desktop. Plus, the plug-and-play battery was another big selling point for me. Highly recommend.

Recently Summer weather has knocked out our power several times. I plugged my TV, Stereo and cable box into this unit to prevent the hard cycling of the power going on and off to prevent wear and tear on my electronics. Now if the power does go out I have plenty of time to shut off my electronics safely and properly. With everything turned on the back up battery gave me almost an hour of running time. I highly recommend this item if you also have a lot of power outages.

I bought this about a month and a half ago. Installing it was basically as easy as plugging it in and plugging my devices into it. Since then, its worked as expected. Having said that, the proof will be shown over time. My last UPS died when we had a spike in the line, after it had been in line for a couple of years. I'm hoping this one will not fail, or at least fail less dramatically. In the meantime, I'm banking on the APC name. I've used their products at home and in racks in corporate settings a number of times, and have reason to believe this one will prove solid over time. The unit has software that I haven't used yet other than looking at it, and a very readable and informative display on the front of the unit itself. Overall, so far I'm pleased with my choice.

This battery backup is easy to use. I suggest you watch the video on Youtube. It leads you step by step. But keep in mind that you are not supposed to plug printers into it , even in just the surge protector plugs. I questioned that on the video and called the company. They confirmed they draw too much power, especially laser printers.

The staff at Best Buy helped me decide on this model. The item works great.
